The spying by the Obama administration on then-presidential candidate Donald Trump reportedly was even worse than what he has alleged. And it had nothing to do with Russia but everything to do with politics. Sources in the intelligence community claim the potentially illegal revealing of names, or unmasking, of people in the Trump camp who were under surveillance was done purely “for political purposes” to “hurt and embarrass (candidate) Trump and his team.” The bombshell revelations come from rank and file members of the intelligence community who are fighting back against a stonewall by the leaders at the nation’s spy agencies, according to Fox News. Reporter Adam Housley said the sources are “not Trump” people but are “frustrated with the politics that is taking place in these (intelligence) agencies.” And what they have revealed is amazing. Here is what they told Fox:1) Surveillance targeting the Trump team during the Obama administration began months ago, even before the president had become the GOP nominee in July.2) The spying on the Trump team had nothing to do with the collection of foreign intelligence or an investigation into Russia election interference.3) The spying was done purely “for political purposes” that “have nothing to do with national security and everything to do with hurting and embarrassing Trump and his team.”4) The person who did the unmasking was someone “very well known, very high up, very senior in the intelligence world, and is not in the FBI.”​5) Congressional investigators know the name of at least one person who was unmasking names.6) The initial surveillance on the Trump team led to “a number of names” being unmasked.7) House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., has known about the unmasking since January.8) Two sources in the intelligence community told Nunes who did the unmasking and told him at least one of the names of someone in the Trump team who was unmasked. The sources also gave Nunes the serial numbers of the classified reports that documented the unmasking.9) It took Nunes a number of weeks to figure out how to see those intelligence reports because the intelligence agencies were stonewalling him, and not allowing the chairman or other people to see them.10) There were only two places Nunes could have seen the information: where the sources work, which would have blown their cover; and the Eisenhower Executive Office building on the White House grounds, which houses the National Security Council and has computers linked to the secure system containing the reports he sought.11) Nunes got access to that system on March 21 with the help of two Trump administration officials, but he said they were not the sources of any information.Well it's no wonder FBI Director James Comey and NSA chief Rodgers skipped out on the House Intelligence Committee closed hearing this week, because it now looks like Obama is in fact spying on President Trump and it has absolutely nothing to do with Russia. It now looks like the Russia/Trump narrative is officially being used to cover up the fact that Obama's spying on Trump is purely for political reasons, as intelligence officials today are stating Obama's wiretap is purely politics and nothing involving Russia. So did intelligence sources just prove to the American people by stating that Obama's espionage on Trump is purely politics...That the Russia/Trump narrative is cover up for Obama spying on Trump for political reasons? It sounds like Intelligence sources calling Obama's spying on Trump only involving political reasons and nothing to do with Russia...Sounds like the Russia/Trump narrative was just proven fake to the American people today, now that US intelligence officials are stating Obama's warrant-less wiretap is purely only for political reasons. If there is nothing involving Russia inside of Obama's illegal surveillance on Trump and his transition team, then it's time for charges to be dropped on Obama and everyone involved in his illegal Trump wiretap for espionage or at least for being in violation of the Espionage Act...Which does carry at least a ten year prison sentence.
